What does Trojan Horse mean?

Trojan horse means a piece of malicious code with special functions.

Trojan, also known as Trojan virus, refers to malicious code with special functions hidden in normal programs. Trojan programs seem harmless and even attractive to unsuspecting users. They are usually hidden in games or graphics software, but they are malicious.

After these seemingly friendly programs run, they will take some illegal actions, such as deleting files or formatting hard disks. Trojan horse is a popular virus file at present. Unlike ordinary viruses, it does not replicate itself or "intentionally" infect other files.

By disguising itself to attract users to download and execute it, it provides a portal for seed trojans to open the seed host, so that seed breeders can destroy and steal the files of the seed host at will, and even remotely control the seed host.

Preventive measures of Trojan virus

1, install anti-virus software on the computer, scan the system regularly and kill virus; Update virus database and system patch in time.

2. When downloading software, try to go to the official website or large software download website, and carry out antivirus before installing or opening software or files of unknown origin.

3. Don't open links to unknown web pages at will, especially links to bad websites. When strangers send links to themselves through QQ, try not to open them.
